I've spun this up for fun, to see how it compares to the base lemmy UI. Give it a whirl, and post any feedback in this thread. Enjoy!

It could go down at any time, as it looks as though the dev is no longer maintining it...

edit: using this https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym

UPDATE: I've killed this off for now. Unclear of why, but was seeing a huge number of requests from this frontend to the lemmy server back end. Today it alone sent ~40% more requests than all clients and federation messages combined.

I just came here to say it wasn't working, but looks like it got switched off a few days back.

I really like the old.reddit layout, so I'd be a huge fan if it was able to be used here too. No biggie if it cant, standard Lamington is pretty uncluttered anyway. Just not very compact. Whats with web devs and whitespace? I'm here to see content, not empty pixels.

Yeah I like it too... but it was generating an abnormal amount of traffic. I'll see if I can figure out what is going on... but mlmym is pretty basic, doesn't seem to have much in the way of configuration options.
